So they add dual spec but they wont do this?

[Wax-nightslayer]

No clue. I believe in my heart of hearts you’ll find one. If not you can make one.

@Avarice-mankrik

the QoL i’d really like are better professions pages, so i can search and share or toggle and show things that skill up or just things that i have mats for, why is this not already a thing?

I agree, the baseline profession UI could use a few improvements

Go back to retail.

[Eyr-whitemane]

cute but i was the biggest proponent of the AH getting UI improvements and we finally got it. being able to sort by buyout. amazing.

I was and you can’t prove I wasn’t.

I wholly agree that Blizz is not respecting player time. Not with seasonals, and most of all not with Anniversary servers.

@Jharo-benediction

There is plenty of other examples of them not respecting player time with small QoL changes that wouldn’t even effect the game more than a change like dual spec would, since that should be a benchmark considering that was flagshipped on launch.

Respecting player time would for me mean:

• Give a slower release scedule - we’d like to enjoy the ride, not work as crazy frogs
• Give more layers - like double up
• give a RP layer to each server if RP servers are not a possibility.

But first and foremost:

• Tell us where we’ll end up - no good working like crazy frogs and end up in Cata once again

As can be seen from this thread alone, adding all the “QoL” changes everybody wants will give us Retail or something very much like it.

We will literally be in BWL gear going into Naxxrammas

So?

Naxx can be cleared in greens bro.

[Pocobueno-thunderfury]

The timeline is fine and should be interesting. I’m not opposed to dropping an additional item in raids if they choose to do that I won’t complain.

In the real game back in 2004-2006 we didn’t go from tier to tier in full BiS with perfect gear. If you want an authentic experience going into Naxx with some BWL and even MC pieces is pretty authentic.

Having time to farm out your dream gear is probably not going to happen before TBC goes live. If that is your main reason for playing, that would suck, but you can do that on Era forever as far as I understand so there is that.

[Absolutekek-area-52]

Didn’t they increase loot drops for SOM on the same timeline?

[Kekzugzug-crusader-strike]

@Jharo-benediction

everyone did GDKPs, etc. 10g in this situation makes 0 sense and doesn’t respect player time in a seasonal mode whatsoever

Yep. Now they just expect people to purchase gold

[Oldtomatoes-area-52]

Just dropping this quote here.

If you give players what they want all the time then they will value nothing (most of all the experience). If I spend 10 hours playing a game where the experience is hollow throughout you’ve disrespected all of my time. If I spend 20 hours playing a game where there are peaks and valleys to the experience because there’s a mix of suffering and sweet sweet accomplishment you haven’t wasted any of my time. The mantra is trying to suggest that the slow or bad moments are wasting my time. Ridiculous.

[Eyr-whitemane]

SoM had harder raids too… people actually needed that extra gear

[Aguy-grobbulus]

@Jharo-benediction

No this is not classic wow, its an anniversary realm.

We’re right back to

This isn’t Classic, it’s SoD

[Corindan-moon-guard]

Oh man. This dude would have hated actual vanilla.

[Aberhamter-benediction]

@Velurm-nightslayer

Chronoboons have always been 10g.

Chrononboons were not in classic wow at all.
They were added to era servers 2years into the game.
It was a different economy and most people had the means to get them.
Now it’s a way for scrubs to make small profits by selling them on the AH.

Except if you run a LC guild, you and bois are set. HR everything and make the pugs work for you.

[Velurm-nightslayer]

Cool man. Chronoboons are also not required to raid. Are you even buying flasks? You should be complaining about the cost of those, not chronoboons.

[Eyr-whitemane]

repeat after me: chronoboons. are. not. required. for. anything.

[Chadtopg-crusader-strike]

Just doing dungeons at 60 gives more than enough gold to pay for multiple chronoboons, and if you actually want to farm gold every class can make 40-50g an hour doing something, even warriors can be making bank selling sm lib boosts for 5g a run rn

[Draikukt-lethon]

You say they’re not respecting our time, but isn’t the point of playing any game at all to waste time for entertainment? Ultimately, if you’re not okay with playing classic the way it is (which is exactly what was promised), you should just be playing something else.

Go back at look at the original trailers and announcements for classic, because if you want it to be different from vanilla (at least beyond the changes they HAVE made), “Then this game isn’t for you.” The long journey and every inconvenience are part of the point. If you are playing classic, you are returning to a close approximation of the original game, and experiencing things as they were, again, IS THE ENTIRE POINT.

Either buck up or play another game, because I don’t think you’re likely to find much sympathy. Everyone should know what they’re getting into, because it is exactly what was advertised.
